Thrush remedy?

@beauforever23 - Just curious if you tried the lysol and if it worked for you.

I didn't use the lysol. My farrier came in and he gave me something that has removed the thrush and I haven't had to deal with it since the last time.

The best thing I have found for Thrush is Sugardine. Sugardine is a mixture of Vet strength Iodine and granulated Sugar off a grocery store shelf. It is a home remedey that is an ages old-timers poultice. Mix Iodine and Sugar to the consistency of thick Honey or slightly thicker than liquid Molasses. You'll need infant-sized disposable diapers and a strong durable tape such as wide duct tape. Pack the frog and sole of the hoof with the Sugardine place a folded baby diaper to fit just the frog and sole then wrap the hoof with all the tape it takes to secure the diaper in place. Taking care to not wrap the tape above the coronet band. It might be necessary to add more tape to keep the whole thing in place. Re-dress daily. Also once a day soak the hoof in a bucket or equivalent filled with Epsom Salts and warm water for no less than 30 minutes at a time.

I use pure apple cider vinegar with about 20 drops of tea tree oil in a spray bottle. Works amazing and its natural.

My tb has thrush from all the rains that have been going on lately and my farrier,sorry if I misspell that, said the best thing he has seen to use is call THRUSH BUSTER. I have been using it for the past week and it seems to be working great. Maybe you can try that, if they don't have it at your local supply store you can find it on ebay.

Hope that helps! Good luck!

I have thrush buster at my barn but, my farrier has already given me something a couple of weeks ago, that has already proven it works. I put it on once in the morning and once at night in the hooves that have acquired the thrush and in about 3-4 days tops it had gone away.
